Nose
Rich berry compote complements autumnal spices: cinnamon and ginger with a hint of sweet treacle. Sultanas give way to orange peel and toasted oak.
Palate
Sweet stewed forest fruit flavors lead to dark chocolate and lime zest. Brown sugar complements toasted hazelnuts and subtle pepper.
Finish
Medium-bodied with lingering coffee bean and apple.
